ermont Sen. Bernie Sanders on Thursday left behind any doubts and officially said that he would be voting for Hillary Clinton this fall.

When asked about whether he intends to vote for Clinton in November during an interview on Morning Joe this morning, Sanders replied with a simple "Yes."

"The issue here is I'm going to do everything I can to defeat Donald Trump," Sanders explained. "I think Trump in so many ways would be a disaster for this country if he were to be elected president. We do not need a president whose cornerstone of his campaign is bigotry, is insulting Mexicans and Latinos and Muslims and women."
